Where did your family live when you were a preschooler? Who was living in the house? Did you share a bedroom? With whom? Did you have a "going to bed" routine? What was it? What were your favorite toy, story and game? Describe one of your preschool birthdays. Who was there? What presents did you receive? Did your mother work? Did you go to preschool or have a babysitter? Who was your most significant caregiver? Why? When did you right your name? Do you recall any special event, pleasant or traumatic, that happened to you or in your family between two and six years of age? How might this have affected your later development? What was your health like? Are any serious illnesses? Try to describe your earliest memory. What were your typical behaviors? Ask someone to describe your personality as a preschooler.
